Obama’s Big Reason for Going Small - By Stanley Kurtz - The Corner - National Review Online

Why is President Obama casting aside the dignity of his office and sacrificing his likeability (his real firewall) with such a silly and tawdry closing campaign? Big Bird, binders, bayonets, bulls*****r, Romnesia, Lena: Why triple-down on triviality when it seems so counterproductive? It’s as if Obama were flashing a great big Biden-sneer at half the country. Is this any way to win an election, much less govern a nation afterwards? Actually, from Obama’s point of view, the answer is emphatically yes. The president’s campaign may look small, yet its ambitions are large. That is the BFD that voters had best understand before Election Day.

Obama is trying to shape a new kind of electorate that would allow him to stop catering to the center and finally govern decisively from the left.
 
Not sure deporting more people than any other President is going to go a long ways with the "demographically ascendent" Hispanic community.
